  1. Edge of Seventeen is about the deaths of Stevie Nicks' uncle and John Lennon in the same week. Destiny's Child later sampled the riff in "Bootylicious" :-(

  2. Bella Donna, Stevie Nicks's first and best solo album (IMHO) is just bloody fantastic... it's where "Edge of Seventeen" is from - all the other tracks are fabulous too!

  3. Rhiannon is commonly thought to be about a Welsh witch, but it's actually about a novel Stevie Nicks read called Triad. Which incidentally was about a woman who is possessed by another women called Rhiannon.
